That would be one of those jobs where you want to take out the office guy who nods off 15 times per day at his desk so you can pull up next to one of those, wake him up, set back and listen to his reaction.

On one of the late night shows recently one of the guests was a pro at pranking people. One example was to take an action figure (doll in my book) of Freddie Kruger or Jason or the Texas Chainsaw Massacre guy and carefully fasten it in the perfect spot relative to the lens of a vehicle backup camera. They showed what the driver would see. Very scary!

Now, THIS is a real dinosaur park................Most of the first 50 pictures address a series of dinosaur sculptures created by a farmer out of all sorts of various vehicle/farm implement/odds and ends-type of parts. Some photos are at the original site at the farm. The others are in a city park after being moved there for improved viewing and care. The good news is they are fenced in.

We had the famous Safety Meeting, and this is what we came up with (.50 BMG):


Not quite the appeal of the above, but if used for field defense, nicely deductible.

Might even land you on a reality show, which as we know, pays better than surveying.

This sounds like a fantastic thing to do. Unfortunately, out of my friends, I'm the only one with a vehicle equipped with a backup camera...

I recall when I was first learning to survey (summer job while still in college), we were working 3-person crews. The party chief was driving and I was in the back seat of the suburban. The other field person was nodding off in the front seat. We were cruising on the freeway and got behind a tow truck that had a tractor rig in tow (so that the grill of this big ol' truck in tow was looking right at us). We got right in behind it and then the guy driving tapped the breaks and shouted an expletive loud enough to wake the person in the front. That person woke up to see the grill of a semi "heading right for us". I'm not sure if the stain was from spilling his coffee or what. But it was pretty funny.
